What does it LOOK like?

Sometimes shopping online can be hard, especially for scrapbooking supplies.  What EXACT pieces are in that package of ephemera I am about to buy? What is the texture of that paper like?  I thought of this as I was physically looking through all the product in the store this past weekend and did a little shopping for myself! The images that I had seen of the products in stock just didn't do them justice sometimes.

So I decided that I am going to start showing you some photos of the REAL products...photos that I have taken so that you can see some more detail and what is actually IN the package.  Now obviously, I have to OPEN the packages to see these things, so I will share with you today two items that I bought for myself!

The first are the gold foil leaves from Studio Calico, Lemon Lush.  They are vellum leaves of different shades of green, yellow, and blue, whose tips are gold.

Here they are on a sneak of a page I am working on:

Another item that I just love are these acetate sheets, also from Studio Calico, Wanderlust.  There are 12 different 4 1/4 x 6" acetate sheets with white printing on them, each one a different pattern.  PERFECT for card making or pocket page scrapping!

Here is a sneak of one I used on a card:

You should REALLY check out the embellishments in both the LemonLush and Wanderlust collections from Studio Calico.  They are very versatile for any type of layout or project!

So is there a certain product that you would like to see in more detail????  Just let me know and I will try and take a photo for you to see!
